Mounting Options for Paper Prints

Mounting Options for our fine-art papers were chosen based on their look, feel and performance guaranteeing you a beautiful finish that’s both unique and classy. Contact customer service about UV coating.

Choose from our four different Mounting options to sturdy your 100% Digital Photo Prints on your choice of paper! Add more protection with lamination!

Fine Art Traditional, Fine Art Hahnemuhle, and Simply Vivid Prints.

Black Gator Board, 3/16”: Durable and moisture resistant, this mount is black on both sides with a black foam core and a great choice for bigger prints up to 40×60”!

Double Weight Mat Board, 1/20”: This buffered acid-free surface is white on both sides and perfect if you’re looking for a thinner, durable mount.

White Eco Board, 3/16”: Go Green with this mount! This paper-faced memory foamboard with a rigid foam center and SFI certified paper liners that is white on both sides is made up of 15% recycled content. It is formulated with “bio resins” that cause the product to biodegrade in a landfill in 1-5 years into a harmless biomass compost. Conventional foam board takes 80-450 years to biodegrade.

Black Styrene: Since Styrene Mounts have no natural fibers in them, they are not affected by variations in moisture content in the environment and will remain flat and warp free even when subjected to large changes in humidity. This means your prints will look great for eons!

What type of files would you prefer for paper prints?

Paper print files should be a minimum of 200ppi at target dimensions.

Do we scan negatives?
To ensure a high level quality print, Simply Color Lab only accepts digital files.

Do you offer color correction?
Color Correction is Free on Fine Art and Canvas prints and charged by the print for Vivid Prints. Press Printed Accordion Books and Super Mini Accordion Books are color corrected at a rate of 1.50 per panel. Press Printed Fine Art Books are color corrected at a rate of $1.50 per side. Our printing technicians can also retouch your photos and complete Photoshop work for a small fee.

Can I do my own color correcting?
If you choose to color correct your own images we highly recommend downloading and previewing your images using our soft proofing profiles on a correctly calibrated monitor. If you choose to have Simply Color Lab correct your file, our trained printing experts will print for best possible color and density. Color and density is subjective and prints may appear differently under varied lighting conditions. Reprints due to color and density will be reviewed on a per print basis and may, at our request, require a matched paper print to be supplied to insure satisfaction.

Do I need to set up my files before ordering it in the ROES ordering software?
We highly suggest that you set up your files in Photoshop before ordering it in ROES. This way you can check to make sure that all of your files are set up properly.

What file format should I submit files?
Please submit your file as a JPEG, TIFF or PNG at 300ppi, in sRGB, Adobe RGB (1998) or ProPhoto RGB color space.

Will my image be pixilated?
Absolutely not! If your file is crisp going in, it will be crisp coming out, as long as the dpi is correct. We need your file to be sized at actual size 100ppi for Canvas, 200ppi for Fine Art Prints, and 300ppi for Vivid Prints, Press Printed Products, and Specialty Photo Products.
